THE GREATEST PODCAST EVER
In this episode Mike and Paul share snake pics, celebrate the end of the pandemic, look out for the millionaires, discuss unwatched TV shows and movies, unpack the latest Wiggles scandal and generally deliver a really tight laser-focused episode.
Some have gone so far as to call it the GREATEST PODCAST EVER and neither Paul, nor Mike would dispute that.

Mailbag O Doom - 51:25 - We read your responses to the last Question of the Week, "what is your favourite comic with a first appearance?"
Waiting for Doom was created in late 2014 after 2 obsessive Doom Patrol fans realised (possibly incorrectly) that the world needed more discussion regarding their all time favourite superhero team. Specifically, from the two of them. Egos, am I right?Some helpful starting points for you:
Mike lives in Brisbane, and has had an on-again, off-again love affair with comics for 95% of his life. Paul lives in Laggan and tempers his encyclopedic knowledge of comics creators, and DC Comics in general, with biting sarcasm. Both of them fear the arrival of the Beardhunter, given their combined facial hair. Waiting For Doom would also not be possible without the support of our fellow Doom Bros: Jeames aka Rifty who provides technical support; and Doug Zawisza, who provides additional Doom Patrol history and commentary both here and on his own site, mygreatestadventure80.blogspot.com . Mike and Paul have the reluctant support of WilFreD, the sentient show Twitter account which gained self-awareness in early 2015. WilFreD lurks around this site so be careful of participating in inflammatory anti-AI sentiments lest we all suffer his wrath. |
